Lake Information:

  

Located very near Markleeville, south of Lake Tahoe, Indian Creek Reservoir is a very weedy 160 acre lake that is full of aquatic life. It has good hatches of mayflies, damsels, midges and caddis. June is normally a big month for fly fishers and it can go into July as well depending on the snow pack and weather. Fall is good here too. It was made for float tubing but can be fish some by wading. At 5650 feet elevation the lake was first built to receive tertiary treated reclaimed waste water from the South Tahoe Public Utility District from the late 1960's to 1989. This is not a fact anymore and the reservoir now receives its water through a diversion from the West Fork of the Carson River. There are two camping areas with no hookups or reservations. Speed limit is 5 mph with a paved launch ramp and no swimming is allowed.
